Directus.js (JavaScript SDK) – The official client for Directus APIs

If you're working with Directus, the open-source headless CMS and data platform, then Directus.js is your new best friend.

Directus.js is the official JavaScript SDK for interacting with Directus APIs. It offers a type-safe, modular, and fully composable interface for:

• Authenticating users
• Fetching data via REST or GraphQL
• Subscribing to real-time updates
• Managing files and content

✅ Why use Directus.js?

• Written in TypeScript – get autocompletion and strong types
• Supports REST and GraphQL out of the box
• Built with a composable architecture – import only what you need
• Works in both browser and Node.js environments
• Makes authentication and token management a breeze

🧪 Example

import { createDirectus, rest, readItems } from '@directus/sdk';

const directus = createDirectus('https://your-directus-url.com').with(rest());

const articles = await directus.request(readItems('articles'));
console.log(articles);
